[R] its dates masked by chron

[Omar Lakkis]

I built R 2.2.0 from source on my debian machine yesterday and updated
all packages. My problem is that "dates" function from its, that my
code heavely uses is now masked by "dates" from chron.
How can I specify tehat I want to use dates from its or how can I
prevent it from being masked?

Type library(help='Hmisc'), ?Overview, or ?Hmisc.Overview')
to see overall documentation.

NOTE:Hmisc no longer redefines [.factor to drop unused levels when
subsetting.  To get the old behavior of Hmisc type dropUnusedLevels().
